Well I see your pumpkin Judy and I'll raise you :). I collect recipes from many sources, and often the suggestions that come on the pack of the pack or can can be very good. I found this one on the back of the Sunbeam mixed fruit packet, and must say that I found it very good indeed, and relatively healthy for a cake. Even better you mix it all up in the one pot.
Ingredients:
500g dried mixed fruit
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 tbsp golden syrup
125g butter
1 cup apricot nectar
1 tsp bicarb soda
2 eggs slightly beaten
1 cup cooked pumpkin cold and mashed
1 cup plain flour
1 cup self raising flour
- Preheat oven to 160 d C
- Grease and line a 20 cm round cake tin
- In a largish pot bring to boil mixed fruit, sugar, syrup, butter and nectar, stirring all the time and then simmer gently for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and add bicarb soda then allow mixture to cool
- Add eggs and pumpkin and stir until smooth.
- Sift in flours and mix well to combine
- Place in tin and bake for 70 minutes or until a skewer in the centre comes out clean.
